Johannes Theobald (born 22 February 1987 in Stuttgart) is a racing driver from Germany.
After spending his early years karting in his native Germany, Theobald made his Formula Racing debut in the entry–level Formula König series in 2003, finishing the year in 12th position. The following season he scored nine podium places to be classified as runner–up behind Ronny Wechselberger, who won all 14 races in the championship. [1]
In 2005, Theobald graduated to the German Formula Three Championship, racing in the same SMS Seyffarth Junior Team as his brother Julian. After failing to start either race at the fourth round at the Lausitzring, he switched from a Renault to a Mercedes–powered Dallara F304 for the remaining races. He scored three points to finish the season in 17th place. [2]
Theobald remained in the series for 2006, but due to budget constraints he competed in the secondary Trophy Class for older specification Dallara chassis. Despite again missing a round of the championship at the Lausitzring, he accumulated three class wins and a further eleven podium places to finish as runner–up behind Latvian Harald Schlegelmilch. [3] In the overall standings, he finished tied on points with Natacha Gachnang and was classified in 14th place on countback. [4]
In 2007, Theobald originally started the season without a drive, but joined Christian Vietoris at Josef Kaufmann Racing for a one-off round at the Nürburgring, finishing the two races in 9th and 11th places respectively.
In October 2007, Theobald replaced Alessandro Ciompi at Eurointernational for the penultimate round of the Formula Renault 3.5 Series season in Estoril, lining up alongside his brother Julian in the team. [5] He finished the two races in 25th and 19th places respectively.
In July 2010, Theobald and his brother both took part in the FIA Formula Two Championship pre-event test at Brands Hatch. [6] Whilst Julian took part in the Brands Hatch meeting, Johannes was unable to compete due to him undergoing his final university exams back in Germany. [7] However, in September 2010, he did make his debut in the series, racing in the penultimate round of the season at Oschersleben. [8]
At the start of 2011, Theobald signed up with his brother to compete in a full season of the series. [9]

Formula Three, also called Formula 3, abbreviated as F3, is a third-tier class of open-wheel formula racing. The various championships held in Europe, Australia, South America and Asia form an important step for many prospective Formula One drivers.
The Lausitzring is a race track located near Klettwitz in the state of Brandenburg in northeast Germany, near the borders of Poland and the Czech Republic. It was originally named Lausitzring as it is located in the region of Lusatia, known as Lausitz in German, but was renamed EuroSpeedway Lausitz for better international communication from 2000 to 2010. The EuroSpeedway has been in use for motor racing since 2000. Among other series, DTM takes place there annually. It also used to host the Superbike World Championship.
The Formula 3 Euro Series was a European-based junior single seater formula for Formula Three chassis that was launched in 2003 as a merger of the French Formula Three Championship and German Formula Three Championship. The Formula Three category, including this championship, is part of the established career ladder up which European drivers progress to the Formula One world championship, the highest form of single seater racing defined by the Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile (FIA), motorsport's world governing body.
The 2006 Formula 3 Euro Series season was the fourth championship year of Europe’s premier Formula Three series. As in previous years, there were ten rounds – each with two races – held at a variety of European circuits. Each weekend consisted of one 60-minute practice session and one qualifying session, followed by one c.110 km race and one c.80 km race. In a revised qualifying system that used only one session, the starting order for race 2 was determined by the finishing order of race 1, with the top eight positions reversed.
The 2005 Formula 3 Euro Series season was the third championship year of Europe's premier Formula Three series. The championship consisted of ten rounds – each with two races – held at a variety of European circuits. Each weekend consisted of one 60-minute practice session and two 30-minute qualifying sessions, followed by one c.110 km race and one c.80 km race. Each qualifying session awarded one bonus point for pole position and each race awarded points for the top eight finishers, with ten points per win. Lewis Hamilton dominated the season, winning 15 of the 20 races and scoring nearly twice as many points as his nearest rival, team-mate Adrian Sutil. As of now, six drivers have competed in Formula One.
The German Formula Three Championship was the national Formula Three championship of Germany, and the former West Germany, from 1950 to 2002, then as Formel 3 until 2014. In 2003, the series had merged with the French Formula Three Championship to form the Formula 3 Euro Series. The lower-level series, the ATS Formel 3 Cup, subsequently operated in Germany, but it folded after the end of the 2014 season. Since the late 1980s, the list of German F3 champions has included many notable drivers, including Formula One World Champion Michael Schumacher and nine-time Le Mans winner Tom Kristensen.
The 2010 FIA Formula Two Championship season was the second year of the FIA Formula Two Championship. The championship began on 18 April at Silverstone and concluded on 19 September at the Circuit Ricardo Tormo in Valencia, after nine double-header rounds.
